Boy becomes millionaire by investing in Bitcoin

A 12-year-old boy became a millionaire by investing in Bitcoin when it was first introduced. He made a deal with his parents to skip college if he could earn a million dollars by age 18. Erik Finman used $1,245 from his grandmother to buy Bitcoin at about $12 per coin, acquiring 103 BTC. By December 2017, when he was 18, his investment had grown to over $2 million as Bitcoin's price reached $20,000. Finman later increased his Bitcoin holdings and, by his mid-20s, was looking to exit the cryptocurrency market, investing instead in airplanes.
